It all depends on how you use the Daz mesh for how it looks. I usually do a LOT of re-working in ZB with custom sculpting to get the look I want. This works quite well for the Daz V4 mesh. I have not yet played with it in ZB but will at least take a look at the mesh design and post more opinions on it.

At first glance though, I must say it is really NOT impressive at all. In the face, it looks like it was done by a rank novice. I just don't like anything about the sculpt, it lacks much realism in my opinion. The head sculpt especially is just dreadful.

I sure hope this is not a trend for Daz as their recent figures just are not convincing at all for human realism. Anyone that has done sculpting in ZB can see the many flaws in them as well. You really have to work in ZB to get them to look good if you want something much better than just using the dials. All I can say is I hope V5 when it comes out is NOT based on anything remotely like the new Daz Kids or Stephanie 4.

Once I can work on the mesh some and see what they did I will post some more.
